Synopsis

Opened December 3, 2000 In a dusky rural bar in Ireland, four local men share stories with Valerie, a woman new to the area. Their stories begin as curious bits of local lore tinged by the supernatural, but grow increasingly personal, an acknowledgement of all in their lives that defies rational explanation. When Valerie, prompted by their reminiscences, describes a great loss, they are bound in tender sympathy by the quiet mysteries of their lives.
